Funny Funny Korean Bar & Restaurant - 85 George Street Brisbane QLD 4000

If you want to save money, don't go to Funny Funny. It's slightly more expensive than its Korean competitors, but the portions make up for it.
 
 
With a bar and main dining area, it's got a pretty cool upbeat vibe.
 
 
The menu offers an extensive selection, including traditional Korean choices such as dumplings, Bi Bim Baps (mixed rice), Korean pancakes, Fried Chicken, and Hot Pots.

Right after we ordered, we were offered some Banchan (Korean side dishes to accompany your main). The sides tasted alright - guess it was free after all.


We were blown away by the Tsunami ($10), a booze platter containing 4 shot glasses filled with sake + soju + beer + whiskey. Surprisingly, it combined into an interesting drink with a subtle hint of sweetness which was very easy on the palette.

To spice up the evening, we ordered Old Kimchi with Pork Soup ($35). 

The first thing that caught my attention was this sign (and not the soup).


So anyway, I risked my life to try the soup.

Was it worth risking my life for?

 
Kimchi with Pork Soup ($35)

I'm not sure but I enjoyed it - Firm yet addictive glass noodles and pork belly soaked in a rich, kimchi-infused broth. You can definitely taste that the kimchi in the broth was perfectly aged, leaving an aromatic spicy sensation in your mouth. Unfortunately, the hot pot only comes with 2 bowls of rice, and any extras cost $2/bowl. I also found the pork belly a little tough.

Verdict:
So what are my overall thoughts about Funny Funny? I certainly thought the manager was funny - the flickering light in the fridge was blinding my friend and we wanted to move to a different table but he told us all the other tables were reserved whereas a junior staff was happy to accommodate our request :S. Funny that.
